Means to lpend Two Billions ' s Almully for Defense. uel States D ces All Other Vations—Congressman Tawney Reviews the Situation at Home and ond. OoN WOBI.DB RESOURCES | §'No nation in the world approaches our mditures on account of wars past and s to come,” says Congressman Tawney, n of the appropriations committee, a’ disoussion of “armed peace” in the w_York Times. In support of the de- ration Mr. Tawney submits these facts figures: proportion to the ize of our army and vy_we are expending about 100 per cent jore than any other power in the world. "The: total expenditures of the United ‘auug Gmeat Britian, Germany and France an acoount of their armles and navies is, in Mund numbers, $1,000,000000 a year. If you afid to this colossal sum the tremendous ¢ MNIMENT m-o-. 80c., and 81.00. ;Cough.,cOm il war budgets of Japan, Russia, Italy, Spain and other great powers of the world, all of whom are groaning under | the welght of the gladiators they are car- rying on their backs, you will have a grand total cost of armed peace so large that the human mind can scarcely com- prehend its magnitude. Even though we are now appropriating 72 per cent of our revenues for the wars past and the wars to come, there is no hint of a stop in this program, or even a pause The war budgets of the world are Increasing rapidly and enormously every year, and we are dolng our best to keep up with the processidn. If we do as well in this line during the next few years as we have Austria, | since the war with Spain it will be only a question of time when the whole country will be working, not for the pursult of happiness, not for the education of the ris- ing generation and the suport of the family, not for the upbuilding Of arts and sclences, but for the feeding, the arming and the uniforming of the mightiest mili- tary establishment the world has ever known. More Than Ever This Year. Look at the showing of the figures. Im- mediately preceding the war with Spain the wnnual expenditur® for the army was | $24,000,000. That was the yearly army bud- el for elght years preceding the Spanish war. For the elght years following that war the appropriation leaped to more than 53,000,000 & year. This year we are asked to_appropriate more than $96,000,000 The increase in the sums approprinted for the navy for the same periods is about 600,000,000, & sum larger than the total ex- penditures of the government for any year previous to the Spanish war, and large enough, owr friends interested in water- ways Improvements tell us, to make the great Mississippl river and its tributaries pavigable for thousands of miles and to oarry out the entire scheme of deepening and broadening of channels that the ad- vocates are now attempting by convention and educational propagands to emsct into law.

The Dreadnought Orase, 1 may be lacking In perception, but I confess that I can see no valid reason for engaging in this latter day ‘‘Dreadnought craze” that has taken possession of the United States along with the other great powers of the world. We seem to be bent now on excelling all other nations in the size and number of big battleships that we are to bulld each year. If there Is any reason to apprehend war with any foreign power within the next decade it has been carefully concealed from the legislative branch of the government. We saw that ‘we ocould spare sixteen of our great battle- ships from our coasts for practically a year. We might just as well spare them for ten. Are we to entirely ignore our splendid geographical isolation? Are we to entirely ignore the physical facts that makes it practically impossible with the modern means of warfare for any nation to invade coast line without being intercepted by the means of defense we now have at our command? The transport service of no European nation is sufficlent, even with- out opposition, to land upon American sofl an army of 100,000 men at a given time. ‘There is no country in the orfent that has 4 neval base within reaching distance of our Pacific coast, and no oriental nation would be 50 reckless of its own Interests 48 to risk the loss of its navy or its fleet by attempting to'send it past the Hawallan islands for the purpose of attacking us upon the Pacific coast. It would know what s plain to every mind, that without tack and its home ports, and without its vessels being able to stop somewhere to coal and repair they would never return. In times of war the ports of every country our territory or come within range of our | In the world are closed to the navies of the contending nations, and each of the com- batants is driven to rely upon its own ports for supplies and for the means of carrying on naval warfare. One Year's Expenditure. “Our splendid fleet of battleships that went around the world could not even start on its record breaking voyage without the ald of at least twenty-eight auxiliary ves- sels flying forelgn flags, and it was able to complete the great journey only with théir assistance. Without the use of those forelgn coalers and auxiliary ships of va- rious kinds the trip would not have even been a first-class fizsle—It would never | have been begun. Last year the United States spent nearly 143,000,000 more in its preparations for war than it spent on all its public bulldings throughout the ‘country since the govern- ment was established, exclusive of the pub- le bulldings in Washington itself. “If you will take the world's figures of | 1308, the last obtainable, you will tind that my statement to the effect that propor- tionately we are spending more money for wars past and to come was made advisedly We are spending only $35,000,000 less an- nually upon our army and navy than Ger- many with an army twelve times as large as ours and a navy half again as large. Great Britain, with an army four times and a navy three times blg as ours spends only $66,000,000 more each year; and France, with an army of 500,000 men and a navy of 66,000, does not spend as much an- nually upon them as we do by more than $150,000,000 in the course of the year. and of wars past the United States is spending yearly 34, than Germany, France. Why Should We Go Armed? In all civilised countries the use of arms in every-day life is @iscoursged and even prohibited. Tlore is no more reason why the nation should g0 armed In time of peace than the Individual. We do not al- low the citizen to go about with revolvers and §152,000,000 more than 000,000 more than England, $136,000,000 more | * In his pockets because of the danger that soclety would encounter In such moments of excitement as are likely to occur in or- dinary dally experience. Just so there is & danger that natlons, upon slight provo- cation or no provocation at all, will de- clare war upon each other when each knows Itself to be dangerously armed and prepared for war. Instead of being a | guaranty for peace, therefore, it seems to me that great armaments are a menace to tranquillity. Thére is no real reason for international war. The age was when It was thought possible for only one great nation to exist in the world at a time. Now we know that great natlons necessary to each other, and as long as geographical and climatic conditions re- |main as they are all of them can grow gTeat side by side. In this era of national specialization we need the products of other countries to aid us In deriving all the comforts and luxuries of life. To gain all there 1s out of international life, just as In private life, peace is desirable. In- ternational commerce, international trade, international languages, international ,art and literature, international political influ- ence and example all demand that perma- nent peace be maintained, and none of them can flourish upon International war But the selfishness handed down from barbaric ages, the distrust that has de- scended from the misty past. prevents. | Peace Withont Arms, | The world must decide in favor of peace | without arms some time, however.

IDLE LAND THE COUNTRY OVER More Abandoned Farms in the United States Than at Any Time in Its Hinstory. The idea prevalls in some quarters that with the approaching end of free land In the west, the era of abandoned farms wili be forever past in the United States. Noth- Ing could be more erroncous. There never were more abandoned farms in the history There never was a period In the history of the world—not excepting times of war and famine—when such uniformly high prices ruled for farm products, when the world demand was 5o unjformly greater than the world supply; and there never has been a period—as far as the United States Is ‘concerned—when there were so many abandoned farms, when there existed such a uniform deterloration in farm values, such a uniform and persistent movement away from the land to the town In the sections of the country known as the | abandoned farm arcas Take the United States as & whole—on January 1, 1809, according to special returns gathered by the conservation commission, | there were 16,000 square miles of abandoned farms, chiefly in New England, New York, the southeast and the middle central states. That 1s, there are in the United States at | present 10,000,000 acres of abandoned farms -an area the same as all that part of the Canadlan northwest that is cultivated, fif- teen times the size of Rhode Island, four times the size of Connecticut, twice the slze of Massachusetts, twice the size of New Jersey. Averaging up all the farms of the United States, the size per farm is 146 acres; go that there are enough abandoned farms to set up 70,000 farmers. Doesn't look very much as if the abandoned farms were decreasing, does it, though one hears general rumors to that effect constantly? Take the abandoned farm areas by sec- tions—in New York state between 1880 and 1900 more than 14,000 farms were abandoned, more than 400,000 people left the country for the city; twenty agricultural districts showed a decrease in population. If New York land were worked to its full capacity it would support a pupulation equal to France, between thirty and forty million people. As matters stand, the population s over 7,000000; but 5,000,000 of th ity people, who.draw their m from other states. Practieally, only over 2,000,000 are drawing thelr support directly from the sofl The same story could be told of all New England with the exception of parts of Maine and Massachusetts.
